That’s your choice to make and passing judgment doesn’t seem to have any material consequence. Compare that to a Palestinian, why should they care what kind of asshole we elect to office, when they care about whether that asshole will keep giving money to Isreal? They have different material conditions but I would not disparage their values over that choice. This idea that a choice is universally good or bad regardless of context is used to police our history, not just our voting. It feels very liberal coded.

This. I can understand an American not understanding the history of a symbol, the confederate flag comes to mind, but the eagerness to murder to make sure America is top dog is big red flag.
When exactly did fascism stop in the states? Was it after the Civil War ended slavery but didn’t give blacks the right to vote? Or when we gave them the right to vote but also sent their men to die in Vietnam? Or did it end with the USSR while we supported the genocide in Palestine? Fascism in the states exists on a spectrum and voting is often choosing which direction it will creep towards.
Not knowing history can do that sometimes
I don’t really take stalk in how people vote in a liberal democracy, its built to dismantle class consciousness. Vote however your internal values and material conditions dictates, but please don’t act like voting will save us from fascism.
But also, anyone who isn’t apart of the one true Vanguard is a liberal or a fascist.

It’s a great way to encourage people to burn more tokens. If you want more reliability you need to focus on deterministic feedback and bubble wrapping everything.
I thought we were sharing comedically bad definitions of political systems.
Pretty sure socialism is when government does things and communism is when government does lots of things.
Catherine Liu pointed out how a lot of leftist spaces end up reproducing vanguards because of internal contradictions. Seems relevant for some reason…
Socialism is when small youtuber, capitalism is when popular youtuber.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Would you let artificial intelligence take care of your children?
2·4 天前Romantic relationships with AI dove tails nicely into the phenomenon of rising divorce rates among the working class. And using AI to rear children is an extension of the trend where the professional managerial class is seen as the vanguard of family values. Working class will be told to use AI to raise their children because they can’t afford an actual human, that’s reserved for the PMC and the elite who “know better” how to rear children.

Bureaucrats are assigned some of the poorest families and their ability to get a raise depends on improving the income of those families.
